Reading the Bible Supernaturally Will Move You to Captivated and Awestruck Worship at the Divine’S Plan for His Word As an Instru- Ment to Magnify His Unrivaled Glory “Not many books should be recommended for both beginning Bible readers and mature Bible readers, but this is one of them. Utilizing brief and pointed expositions of often overlooked Bible verses, John Piper helpfully explains why we should be reading the Bible, the work of the Spirit in our Bible reading, and the fundamental skills and habits of faithful Bible reading. I cannot imagine a serious Christian who would not benefit from a thoughtful reading of this book.” D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School; Cofounder, The Gospel Coalition “I have been reading the Bible daily for thirty-five years. Reading the Bible Su- pernaturally challenged my motives, effort, and enjoyment. I doubt I will read the Scriptures the same way again. I look forward to deeper and more wonderful times alone in the Word in the days ahead. This book is a must-read for anyone wanting to take Bible study seriously.” Francis Chan, New York Times best-selling author, Crazy Love and Forgotten God “Stunning. Profound. Powerful. Reading the Bible Supernaturally will move you to captivated and awestruck worship at the Divine’s plan for his Word as an instru- ment to magnify his unrivaled glory. Seeing and savoring the God of the Scriptures is an extraordinarily high calling every believer must pursue, and no man can move us to that place quite like John Piper. This book, accessibly written and weighty in content, is so much more than a manual or study guide to the Scriptures. Rather, it’s an invitation to the experience God intended we have with his Word—an experience that is Spirit dependent, faith building, and worship inciting.” Louie Giglio, Pastor, Passion City Church, Atlanta; Founder, Passion Conferences; author, The Comeback “The seemingly mundane topic of reading the Bible ushers us into a world of su- pernatural grace for sinners. With constant reference to the Holy Scriptures, John Piper shows us how to beware the leaven of the Pharisees and to read by the light of Christ. Yet Piper commends no passive mysticism, but studious labor over the best of books; he is thorough, practical, and engaging throughout. Take up and read!” Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary “Reading the Bible Supernaturally reminds us why we cannot rest until every per- son on earth has access to the Bible in their own tongue. Tribes, languages, peoples, and nations are perishing without access to, or opportunity to know, this glorious God through this glorious book. John Piper stokes the urgency of our calling as the church of Jesus Christ to deepen our appreciation for the Word that God uses toward a missional end—his global and eternal glory.” Michael Oh, Global Executive Director, the Lausanne Movement “Reading the Bible Supernaturally is a thorough and compelling wake-up call to lethargic, passive, resistant, mechanical Bible readers (which is all of us at one point or another) to become hungry, eager, inquisitive, aggressively observant miners for the treasure in the text—fully expectant that God will bring us from death to life, from foolishness to wisdom, from damning despair to glorious hope through his Word.” Nancy Guthrie, Bible teacher; author, Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament Bible study series “If you disconnect the Bible from God’s glory, you lose your grip on both. What terrible things we hear people say about each of them, taken in isolation. John Piper puts them together, and finds himself preaching an astonishingly high doctrine of Scripture, right alongside an intimately experiential doctrine of God’s glory. Read- ing the Bible Supernaturally is not just one of the helpful activities that make up the Christian life. Kept in proper context, seen in full perspective, and received in wide-awake recognition of the living voice of the triune God, reading the Bible is the central act of Christian existence. This book, a kind of extended Christian hedonist gloss on Psalm 119, is an invitation to the miracle of Bible reading.” Fred Sanders, Professor of Theology, Torrey Honors Institute, Biola University; author, The Deep Things of God: How the Trinity Changes Everything “No book has inspired me to approach Scripture with as much anticipation as Reading the Bible Supernaturally. Read this book at your own risk, for it will ignite your devotional life. You will find yourself actively hunting for treasure in the Bible, looking carefully at each passage, praying and trusting that God himself will open your eyes to see and savor his glory. Don’t let the length of this book fool you; it is clear, accessible, and inspiring. In fact, it is the most practical, passionate, and motivating book on reading the Bible I have ever read. Read it. Apply it. Test it. It will transform your approach to God’s Word.” Vaneetha Rendall Risner, author, The Scars That Have Shaped Me “Having read Reading the Bible Supernaturally, readers will not return to Scrip- ture carelessly or indifferently but with renewed and stimulated appetite to meet with the God of glory who inspired it and can be found and freshly encountered through its pages. John Piper’s own insatiable appetite for fellowship with God communicates inspiringly.” Terry Virgo, Founder, Newfrontiers Reading the Bible Supernaturally Reading the Bible Supernaturally Seeing and Savoring the Glory of God in Scripture John Piper ® WHEATON, ILLINOIS Reading the Bible Supernaturally: Seeing and Savoring the Glory of God in Scripture Copyright © 2017 by Desiring God Foundation Published by Crossway 1300 Crescent Street Wheaton, Illinois 60187 All rights reserved.

  • 1 TIMOTHY 4 Prophetic Forewarning, the Value of Sound Doctrine & Encouragement to Persevere
    1 TIMOTHY 4 Prophetic Forewarning, the Value of Sound Doctrine & Encouragement to Persevere vv. 1-5 CONDITIONS IN THE CHURCH IN THE LATTER TIMES [1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; 5 for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. ] After having given Timothy a description of the qualifications for pastors/overseers/bishops and deacons to promote the spiritual health and growth of the Church; he turns his attention to the future conditions of the Church. Why is this important? Because the Holy Spirit expressly communicates this truth; meaning He speaks clearly and often about this subject. Note that Paul talks about this again in his second letter to Timothy { 2 Tim. 3:1-13 } so it is an extremely important subject for every believer to consider and take seriously. Paul uses a noteworthy term for this period of time—‘in latter times ’. The Greek word for ‘times ’ here means a ‘ set or measured time ’; in other words, at an appropriate time . This is important to note because Paul could have used another word for ‘time’, [‘ chronos ’], which refers to an unspecified period or season of time.

  • What Readers Have Said About the Angel Diary: “Thank You for the Opportunity to View Your Manuscript of the Angel Diary
    Published by The Partnership Machine, Inc., 137 E. Leach <> Des Moines Iowa 50315 www.Saltshaker.US 515/244-3711 Copyright 2006 AD by Dave Leach, all rights reserved This is one of a few copies printed for the purpose of getting readers’ feedback, while seeking a contract with a mainstream publisher. This copy includes manuscript revisions through December 19, 2018 AD What readers have said about The Angel Diary: “Thank you for the opportunity to view your manuscript of The Angel Diary. I have found it to be an exceedingly interesting book. It reminds me of C.S. Lewis’ ‘Screwtape Letters’. It is of that excellence of quality. Your theories shine with purpose. Of course I am a strong believer in the King James Version and have had many scrimmages over it. It is still the most tried and true, and all others are just a counterfeit. So it blesses me that you use King James, and it also blesses me that you write out the Scriptures. You cover many important topics such as ‘The Life of the flesh is in the blood.’ While I take this writing to be ‘fiction’, it is truly thought-provoking with your support from Scripture. May God use this as a tool in your hand to promote the Gospel and to showcase the defeat of our enemy, Lucifer, the once cherished angel who now awaits his final destination – the fires of Hell.” -- Dr. B. L. Rice, Bible College President, pastor of Commerce Community Church, West Des Moines, Iowa “What I've read so far I like.

The cross and the yoke symbolize for us the two I erent aspects of commitment. The cr~ss is an instr~ment of death; Yoke the yoke is an implement of tml. The cr~ss IS the symbol of sacrifice; the yoke is the symbol of service. The cross sug- gests blood; the yoke suggests sweat. · . Jesus used two great symbols for Christian commitment.

  • Via Video, We're Going to Meet a Young Man This Morning
    Moses Page 1 of 11 July 8, 2013 “There’s No Excuse for Excuses” Jeff Ginn, Senior Pastor Via video, we’re going to meet a young man this morning that’s quite remarkable. He has all the reasons in the world to make excuses for why he can’t do certain things, but his mother taught him early on never to make excuses, that he could do whatever God called him to do. His name is Ben Underwood. Watch this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_k8Wgor1FE That’s a great story because he made no excuses for himself, and you’ve got to give a lot of credit to his mother because boy, she did not shelter him. She put him out there and said, “Son, you can do anything you set your mind to.” He rose to it. He didn’t make any excuses. Now I don’t show that because we’re all like him. In fact, I’m showing it for the opposite reason. Too often, we though able bodied and having all of our senses, make excuses why we can’t do what God calls us to do, what he would will for us to do. So this morning, I want to preach a message entitled, “There’s no excuse for excuses.” There’s no excuse for excuses. And I want to base it out of the life of Moses. So if you’ll open your bible, please, to Exodus Chapter 3, we’re going to begin there. In fact, we’re going to Chapters 3 and 4.

The entries consist of the name of husband, the date by which the marriage had taken place, and the name of the wife. The land record book and folio (page) number are given in parentheses.
